The Boston Herald thinks that Cleveland
face to face with the civil service reform
question, occupies position in many re-
spects analogous to that held by President
Lincoln respecting the abolition of negro
slavery; and that to work effectually he can
go no faster than a sustaining public opinion
will warrant him in going. The respects in
which the positions of the two men are not
analogous are that Lincoln was friend Of
the slave for the sake of principle, while
Cleveland was friend of reform for the
sake OF votes; Lincoln performed without
ostentatious promise while Cleveland osten-
tatiously promised without performance
Lincoln's courage and convictions grew
stronger at every obstacle of a tumultuous
administration, Cleveland's grew weaker as
he became more comfortable in his secure
position; and finally, Lincoln was success
and Cleveland is a failure.

But for British connection the people of
this country would not be in the slightest
danger from the only nation that they could
not beat off with ease. and against that ma
ton British protection would not be of the
least avail. Great Britain may be said to
owe gratitude to Canadians of both races for
sacrificing their material interests to an in
calculable degree in order to keep the British
flag. waving in North America. But the
truth is that neither Britons nor Canadians
should cast up services or bring charges of
ingratitnde. The people of the Dominion
retain British connection because il pleases
them to pay the cost. Great Britain, though

WONDERFUL PLANT.
Almost Worshiped for Hts Marvellous
Curative Powers.

A WONDERFUL PLANT.
Curative Powers.
The following is taken from one of the Newspa-
pers: when. some years since, a small but ill.,
trepid band Of scientific travellers and explorers
penetrated into the very heart of distant tropical
country, they found, among other strange things,
a most wonderful medicinal plant. The most
marvellous stories told of the effects of this
plant upon the nervous system and physical
strength. 1t is sovereign and absolutely certain
cure for physical and nervous exhaustion and
prostration. But not only does 1t restore health,
nervous power and vigor in case of disease, but
such is its strengthening and invigorating effects
upon the human system, that its use is almost I'M
iversal among these people even in health, to keep
the physical and nerve powers up to a high stand
ard of perfection.
Learning these facts the explorers believed
that IL must be the best and most remarkable
nerue tonic and restorer ever discovered. Their
Investigations OF its almost miraculous curative
effects in all cases of nervous diseases and pros
traitor of vitality, demonstrated that it is beyond
doubt the greatest known tonic for the nerves,
and one which, being purely vegetable, is not
poisonous or injurious, and therefore may be used
"Dr. Greene, the eminent specialist in the
treatment and cure OF nervous diseases, was
among the first to learn of and use this valuable
remedy. and 1t enters into the preparation as one
Of the ingredients, of his wonderful Nervura
Nerve Tonic, which is a vegetable compound of
the greatest efficacy for the cure of all affections
of the nervous system"

A Just Decision.

James II. Wright, Arizona's Chief JUS
tice, is man who is remarkably careful
in his decisions, as In the one recently
rendered in the case OF the Atlantic x
Pacific Railroad, wherein the road claim
ed that the right OF way or easement
across the public lands Of the Territory
carried with it the right Of exemption
from taxes. Or in other words, the rail-
road set up that the permission given
them TO build and operate a road across
the country relieved them from paying
taxes OH the road bed, rolling stock,
depots, buildings, etc, etc. This propo-
sition was ably argued by Judge Halle
dine, OF Albuquerque, the attorney Of the
railroad, who in a lengthy and able brief
ingeniously argued that was the proper
construction OF the law; but Judge Wright,
who gave the question great considera-
ton, put this matter forever TO rest by his
able and unanswerable decree just rem
dered. Railroads have as much rights
as individuals and no more. We are in
favor OF dealing justly by these useful in
stitutions, bat we are not in favor Of ex-
empting them from proper taxation, and
we commend the decision Of our incor-
ruptible Chief Justice. Judge Wright is
one of the ablest jurists in the Territory,
and he is an honor and a credit to the
appointing power at Washington.--Ph@-
nix Gazette.

The fact that OF the more than 200
letters received by Gov. Oglesby in rela-
tion to his action in the case OF the
Chicago Anarchists, only six express the
wish that he had been more merciful, is a
fair indication Of public sentiment on the
subject. 1t is impossible to convince more
than three out of a hundred American
citizens that deliberate murderers should
not suffer the penalty Of the law, regard
less OF pretenses Of devotion to the rights
OF poor and Oppressed.-Giobe- Democrat.
